Thanks Wossco, appreciate the pep up mate, knackered tonight, but this Forum is truly a great unwind [emoji106][emoji106]
Probably could’ve finished the build Monday just passed if some Skinny HC Bushman stopped swapping our Argon bottle for his own wicked projects with Bundy cans kindly morning doorstop found replacements :-)

Thanks @Rossco, pump should arrive today I am hoping, then I can start on the 11L coolant reservoir and pump assy. From there its off to the a/c shop for charging and hitting the highway. I was saying to @MB last week, it needs wider boots/suspension upgrade/removal of rooftop weight I think as it is prone to understeer on sweeping corners if I even touch the throttle - simply very responsive in 3rd thru 5th.Quote:

Shit Plassy. I was waiting for the bit where they ask you to send them some coin to help get their pilots license back or something.
Talking to Nic @rusty_nail on the phone today. Haven't spoken with him in a couple of months I reckon. Gave me a smile. A big one.
Cannot wait until we can piss off for a night in the bush again mate.
Cheers mate, great to chat at always bud. Yes can't wait for the next camp trip.Quote:

Had this little gem in the house for about 4 weeks now....
Found abandoned in a shed,handed to FAUANA,Ebbs her mummy
Had a bad injury to her foot,toes missing and just bone jutting out weighing 240grams
A few vet visits and an ok and her foot is looking good less a few toes,while there she is also being diagnosed blind....probabky why she was abandoned
EBB is hoping to obtain a educational licence to help let people know about there demize...Ringtail possums are critical endangered, need all the help they can get http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2020/05/97.jpg

No way they are endangered in Brisbane. Both ring and brush tailed are plentiful in the 'burbs. Between them and the flying foxes we can't grow a damn thing without solid physical protection because they just eat almost everything!.Quote:

Been hearing everywhere that now is the time to buy a new car, and I can attest to that. Picked up a 2 month old, 2020 Subaru Outback 3.6R with 2000 kilometres on it, optioned up for the Subaru exec who had it, for over 10K saving on a new one. Happy days. Full 5 yrs new car warranty blah blah blah. Attachment 81075
nice mate! the missus has the diesel variant in the premium 2019 model. the car is ABSOLUTELY fantastic. Sooooo comfortable.Quote:

Camping open again makes me happy
How's the servicing expenses for subi's nicco? Been vaguely looking around for a new work vehicle for a while. Subi's high on the wanted list, but not yet ready to step over the commitment threshold. Do Subi owners experience euro prestige service inflation?Quote:

To be honest mate, we've one had the car for around 15000ks, and has only seen one service in that time. I had it serviced at a licensed mechanics rather than the dealer. It only cost us around$300-400. I'm sure other ones will be more but I feel I'm getting a better service while maintaining my warranty going through a mechanicQuote:

Well may not be getting to the Canning in the next 12 months, so I've been thinking of a few other smaller trips.
1 - Border Track
2 - High Country
3 - Googs Track
4 - Yorke Peninsula
5 - NSW central coast
6 - Southern QLD
If I can do a few of them I'll be a happy camper.
Dropped some big trees on a neighbour's property for fire wood. Nothing went wrong which makes me happy!!!http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...020/05/104.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...020/05/105.jpg

Been working up at my folks place in Mallacoota that got burnt on new years. Grocon got the block cleared in late April and gave been spending the week removing a couple of large Yellow Stringybarks and some other trees. Bit of a shame to take down the big buggers but enjoyed them and will mill them up and hopefully get some good timer out of them . . . Certainly on the road to recovery now. .

No idea how to deal with it hey. Dropped the first tree, it clipped the second one on the way down and compromised it. Was leaning a fair bit and I didn't feel comfortable leaving it. Cut that one down and it's ended up wedged on yet another tree but is much better than before. Any suggestions on how to deal with it mate?Quote:
